Random question regarding Meri, is getting her post knot cave content (when added) tied to going the warlock route, much like getting the bard requires the bard path? Honestly it be neat if you could eventually get both eventually maybe we'd find the one we lost out on initially in Tychris down on their luck or something.
It only requires you having defeated Tharsus in combat. You can accomplish this in both paths of the Strange Bedfellows quest. What happens is Tharsus ditching her to save his own hide; she's out of a job and roams the old forest if you don't execute her.
This isn't a concrete idea, but I've been considering the notion of potentially making Tetsuya or Drifa be a camp follower. If I pursued this idea, which one would you prefer to have at your camp and helping in battle as a rally/summon? I'm mostly just gauging interest.

Drifa for sure, I would take her with me wherever we would travel too!!
It is quite obvious that most people are going to pick Drifa; I will give my vote for Tetty.
You could always do both eventually, obviously at different times.
I'll throw my hat in the ring for Tetty, though it appears we're outnumbered

Drifta is a Fort Waifu, so obviously Tetsuya would need to be a follower husbando.
If Tetsuya was hard to access maybe I could see this, but he's just as easy to access as Drifa. Plus Drifa just makes more sense as a traveling companion as a priestess - maybe she can heal you once a day at camp and also act like a healing type summon? Plus Tetsuya doesn't even make sense as a battle summon - his description literally says he's no warrior or field worker. To be honest the only current Kitsune that make sense to me as a follower would be Hana, Kurako, or Azami - maybe Takahiro if they are rewritten.
Drifa just makes more sense objectively, regardless of majority bias towards her over Tetsuya - Honestly I could see Tetsuya joining the wayfort if you marry him, but I think being a follower is out of his depth.
Honestly I think it would be better to just create a new character for this role then retcon/adjust Tetsuya to make it make sense for him to follow you in your travels - he really doesn't seem like someone who'd hoof it with the group.
I agree with most (if not all) of IraMorti's points on Tetsuya. I don't have anything against him, but his character just doesn't make sense as a camp follower. Plus there's the children. I mean, Kiyoko has children, but those grow up fast and there's lots of siblings to watch over them. He's not an adventurer and the initial reaction is that it just feels weird without some really well-written setup.
For clairification about Tetsuya's combat prowess, he is an experienced practitioner of magic. He was trained under an Astrida mentor and uses talismans for spells. If anything, he's an arcanist that's capable of casting devastating spells but his abilities are used in the den to make low-power charms like crop wards
I'm still gonna have to vote Drifa. Eubicha shows that a camp follower doesn't need to do combat but if it means more interactions with Drifa I'm definitely voting for her.
Tetsuya has professional training from an Astrida mentor. If anything he makes more sense as a battle summon and traveling companion.
I personally vote Tetty. I promise I'm not biased for fluffy husbands wdym 
Tetty has my vote too. We don't have a single summonable husbando yet!
I frankly rather not have either, I just think Drifa makes more sense than Tetsuya - But I'd be perfectly happy if neither got it. Don't make it about the "grrr not enough men how dare more grill content" crowd, because it really isn't. I just didn't think he made sense as a follower.
